On The Job visits the Sugar Creek Wastewater Treatment plant in Alexander City to find out more about job opportunities in the wastewater industry. Depending on the education, training, and certification a person has, a job in the wastewater industry is stable and also comes with good pay and benefits. 
One of the lift stations locted at the Sugar Creek Wastewater Treatment plant in Alexander City.
On The Job gets a first hand look at how to build and operate a palletizer at VonGal in Montgomery. Palletizers are machines specifically built for packing and shipping large bulk materials. VonGal would be a perfect fit for a candidate who possesses a background in industrial maintenance, electronics or graphic design.
 Neal Tunnel (pointing), an industrial mechanic at VonGal, gives host Bobby Jon Drinkard direction on how to operate the Palletizer.
On The Job goes behind the scenes with the Utility Linesman Program at the Talladega Campus of Central Alabama Community College. The utility linesman program at CACC is a seven-week course designed to provide students with the technical skills and certification needed to work in the lineworker industry.
 On The Job's Bobby Jon Drinkard is "suited up" and ready to climb a utility pole at the Talladega Campus of Central Alabama Community College's Utility Linesman Program.Located in Pike County, the seventh and eigth-grade students at Banks Middle School have recently developed their very own student news podcast.

AIDT Outreach
|
AIDT staff participated in Operation Grateful Heart by donating toys and helping sort and load. Over 4500 toys, books, and stuffed animals were collected at the Capital for the annual Christmas toy drive. After toys were collected, they were sorted and orders were bagged and filled according to sex, age & organization. Toys were distributed to families identified at Maxwell/Gunter AFB as well as Fort Rucker and several local reserve units that have been deployed. Upon meeting the needs of the military families the remainder of the toys were distributed to other groups such as: CAVHCS, Gibbs Village, The Family Sunshine Center and Corrections (children of inmates).
